goal
What is the difference between the 'Collected Entries' in the UNSECURED view and the entries in the REJECTED view?

fact
VigilEnt Security Agent for iSeries 5.4/7.0

fix
Location of Collected Entries is controlled by the value used on each Exit Point in the Collection field.

  • UNSECURED entries are those that would fail due to having no rule in place that would have allowed them to go through.

  • REJECTED entries are those that would fail because there is a rule in place to fail the transaction.

If the Exit Point, Collection field is set to *ALL, entries that fail would be in both the UNSECURED list and the REJECTED list. In other words, UNSECURED is a subset of the REJECTED view in this scenario.  This distinction could be used to determine the reason it would fail.  If *REJECT (or REJECTED) is used for the Collection value on the Exit Point, all entries will be written to that view, regardless of whether there is a rule governing the transaction or not.  ALLOWED Collected Entries are those that already have rules in place for them.
